I would just like to know if there's any other way of automatically activating the siren mode besides motion/sound detection. I ask this because I live in an apartement and really only need the system to record. The siren is currently set to never on in my custom mode, but I would like to know if there's any other possible way of automatically triggering the siren to go off. The last thing I want is receiving any angry phone calls from neighbors while I'm on vacation.

If you have a siren, you must have the Pro base. If you have the Pro base, you'll see in your app that you can manually activate the siren through the app in the devices list

So unless I manually activate the siren, or if I have it set in my custom mode to turn on in the case of a motion/sound detection, there is no other way for it to come on automatically, correct? Just making sure.

TV647604,

 

This is correct, the siren can be activated manually or through modes/rules.
